Description

As part of the 30th anniversary of GunPla (Gundam Plastic Models), Bandai introduced a new product line that combined the highly detailed and articulated features of the Perfect Grade and Master Grade lines with the scale and price of its standard 1/144 line.

The fruit of this labour is the Real Grade line, a new product line aimed at those looking for the best of of Bandai’s Gundam model kit lines. The first in this new series was the RX-78-2 Gundam, from the first TV series ‘Mobile Suit Gundam.’

Featuring an internal skeleton previously found only on higher end models, this ‘Advanced MS Joint’ allows unprecedented posability at this scale and unrivalled mechanical detail.

This version of the RX-78-2 was based on the 1/1 Gundam statue constructed in Japan and features a large sheet of markings to replicate the ‘real’ thing.
